GENERAL WARNINGS AND CAUTIONS
REFER TO SONATA SYSTEM INSTRUCTIONS FOR USE FOR COMPLETE WARNINGS AND
CAUTIONS
COMPONENTS ARE NOT OPERATOR SERVICEABLE
Do not attempt to remove protective covers on any components of the Sonata System. Parts within the
protective covers of any component are not serviceable by the operator.
DO NOT REMOVE COVERS
DO NOT attempt to remove protective covers on any components of the Sonata System. None of the parts
within the protective covers of any component are operator serviceable. As outlined in Technical Manual
Chapter 1, operator serviceable parts may be accessed without removal of the protective covers. The
protective covers prevent access to potential electrical and mechanical hazards. Touching any components
behind access covers may create a pathway for current leakage, presenting an electrical shock hazard to
the operator or to the patient. If the system function is in question, call a Gynesonics representative for
service
USE GROUNDED CONNECTIONS
Use only grounded electrical connections. Connecting the Sonata System to a power source that is not
equipped with a protective earth contact creates a shock hazard for the operator or may compromise the
reliability of the system and other equipment attached to the same circuit. Interrupting the protective
conductor inside or outside the device, or interrupting the protective earth terminal can, create a shock
hazard for the operator. To achieve the enhanced grounding reliability of the hospital-grade plug provided,
use an outlet marked “hospital only” or “hospital grade”, if available.
SALE AND USE
Federal law restricts this device to sale by or on the order of a physician.
POWER CORDS AND EXTENSION CORDS
Use only approved line cords provided by Gynesonics. DO NOT use additional multiple portable socket-
outlet strips or extension cords
SMART TABLET CANNOT BE USED AS COMPUTER.
The SMART Tablet resembles a tablet computer, but DO NOT attempt to use it as one. Actions to use it as
a tablet computer may damage the system and expose it to risks such as attacks by viruses. These actions
include installing or updating software, connecting the system to a network, or attempting to access the
native operating system
COMPONENT OPENINGS
DO NOT obstruct any openings on Sonata System components, such as cooling vents for the SMART Tablet
and for the RF Generator. Doing so may result in compromised product life or cause overheating of
equipment
BATTERY
DO NOT attempt to remove or use the battery inside the SMART Tablet.
